Kill Bill (C-61)

This is my entry to Fair Copyright for Canada's "Bill C61 in 61 Seconds Contest." If you haven't heard already, the government is trying to introduce new copyright legislation that pretty much takes away all of our rights when it comes to copyrights.

I've barely scratched the surface on the subject. Check out http://www.faircopyrightforcanada.ca and http://www.michaelgeist.ca to learn more about Bill C61 and what you can do to STOP this Bill from being passed.

All that left vs. right wing non-sense is useless. You vote and what has changed? NOTHING! In fact what happened to the sponsorship scandal, Lying Mulroney's white envelope of dirty money and most recently the 1 billions dollars of wasted money for digital medical files. Guess who's paying for all the lies and thievery? Keep voting it makes a difference. Politics is a circus & the clowns have all of you fooled!

Vote ABC - anything but Conservative.

Send Harper and Co. a message by voting for the Green party, the NDP or the Liberals.

i think the real question here could be "who hasn't?" personally i always thought there was some sort of loophole to get around with downloading music. i have heard numerous times while i was in high school. that it wasn't downloading the music or movies via p2p or torrent that was illegal. but to share your files to be a source of information to download from was what really got you in trouble. hmm i wonder. anyways thanks for posting mark. and Good luck with the contest brother.
